Dec. 26, 1887.
Now that Xmas has come. some of
US have come home to spend our vaca
tion, and some have gone away to
our County seat to eujoy the Insti-
tute. Were the distance not 80 great
more of US would go rs it bids fair to
be excellent, but we could not all at
tend the Institute, 80 we planned aud
had some thing of our own. / speak
of the Entertainment in Academy
Hall last Friday evening. The pro.
gram consisted of Music, REGULATIONS,
and the reading of "the North Wash.
ington Echo" The two Choruses,
The Heavens are Telling" and"The
Carnovali" were particularly 6ne.
Yesterday our Church services
were well attended, and in the even
ing the North Washington Bible
Reading Circle held their monthly
meeting in the Presby yterisn Church.
Among those taking part in the
Exercises were Mr.. Gibson of She.
mango, Prof. j. F. Reigart and Mr..
Will Robertson, New Wilmington.
1t is now showing wi hich gives us
continued hope of sleighing which if
it comes we may pay you visit.
For the present, goodbye. W.. Il.

Congress.

Congress adjourned last week to
over the Holidays, near two weeks.
This has been the case for years back
and strongly suggests that It's time
TO have . change in that matter.
Better tbst Congress should not meet
until after the Holidays than to meet
and be in session but week or two
and then adjourn for two weeks. One
reason always given is, that the
Speaker may have time to arrange
the Committees. This is the same
reason given at the meeting Of each
Pennsylvania Legislature, with less
reason in fact than the one for Con-
gress adjourDing. Those committees
instead Of being arranged according
to the merit of members, are always
picked and:arranged according to the
politics OF members or with the view
to some political action, The present
Speaker Of Congress, Carlisle, bas not
as. yet announced the Committees Of
the House and will not do so now un-
ill Congress reassembles after the
Holidays. Thus is month lost be-
fore Congress is even organized. 1,
is time the people call halt on this
business. both in State and Nation.

Fire in MiddleSex Twp.

MIDDLEsEx TWP, Dec, 26, 1887.
EDS. CITIzEN:-About 8 O'Clock
this morning Mr. Hiram Flick was
aroused from his slumbe by loud
cracking noise. Arising from his
bed be found himself surrounded by a
glaring light. He gave the alarm of
fire to his family, then throwing the
door open found that it was his barn
that was ON fire. The roof was al
ready csved in and he proceeded in
haste to the barn, clad only in his
night clothing, and succeeded in saw.
ing all his live stock. By daybreak
the barn with its contents of hay,
straw, cornfodder, wheat and rye, and
harness and many farming imple-
ments, together with one stack of
hay standing by the barn were re-
duced to ashes.
Mr.. Flick is hard working man,
with not the best of health, and has
the sympathy of this neighborhood in
this sad loss.
1t is believed that the barn was set
on fire, as there is no other way
known by which 1t could have hap
pened. Wet.
